Exclusive: Kerry Warns Israel Could Become ‘An Apartheid State’
The secretary of state said that if Israel doesn’t make peace soon, it could become ‘an apartheid state,’ like the old South Africa. Jewish leaders are fuming over the comparison.

It sure would be nice if we could refrain from meddling in other country's affairs. That path leads only to more trouble.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

Ol'Swiftboat Johnny must be hanging around too much with Uncle Joe...

As for staying out of other country's affairs, look at how well that's working out after we pulled out of Iraq (or actually just replaced the DoD presence with DoS personnel). Going in to Libya and Egypt is also working out very well, heck it seems like every time I read a story about either country Democracy is erupting everywhere across North Africa. Then there's Syria and Ukraine, we have kept our troops out of those countries (so far) but not our politics - look how stable both of those countries are!

Barry's foreign policy could be summed up by quoting Teddy Roosevelt as if it were opposite day: "Speak loudly, draw red lines over and over but never back up any statement with action, and carry a small stick."

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." - Henry Ford

Corruptissima re publica plurimae leges; When the Republic is at its most corrupt the laws are most numerous. - Publius Cornelius Tacitus

It is just an attempt to get Israel to the negotiating table, but too little, too late. The moderate Palestinian group had buried the hatchet with the radical group to present a common front. There is no way Israel will negotiate with the radicals.

Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
